Huck Seed:
Brian Mizok:
On fifth street, the action looked like Seed had 3-bet against Mizok. sixth saw Mizok lead again though and Seed raised once more, again with a call. On seventh Mizok checked and Seed bet yet again. Mizok scooped up his cards and threw what looked to be
into the muck for aces up and a missed draw to a six-low.
Big Antes... Shallow Stacks
Additionally, the NLHE portion of the rotation is currently playing with 3,000-6,000 blinds and a 2,000 ante, creating an already-massive 25,000 pot before action even begins.
Allie Prescott Triples Up
Allie Prescott moved all in for 24,000 from middle position and got two callers-- Scott Dorin in the small blind and David Chiu in the big.
Miraculously, Prescott's
ended up as the best hand, the board running out 
to make him two pair and triple his stack to 88,000.
Max Pescatori Eliminated in 24th Place ($16,649)
Max Pescatori was all in preflop for his case 55,000 against Matt Hawrilenko.

Hawrilenko
Pescatori could not improve on the
board and hit the rail in 24th place. Hawrilenko is up to 222,000.
Brian Mizok Eliminated in 23rd Place ($16,649)
Brian Mizok took his
up against Ville Wahlbeck's 
in a preflop all in. Though he hit top pair in the 
flop, Wahlbeck flopped a flush. The turn was the 
, making him trips and leaving a ray of hope for his survival should the board pair, but the river fell the and Mizok departed in 23rd place.
Great (Pre)Scott! Harris Pavlou Out In 22nd ($16,649)
David Chiu raised to 18,000. Harris Pavlou (He must own a dog surely?) moved all in and Allie Prescott pushed behind. Joe Serock moved all in too now and Chiu got out of the way.
